Facility Inspections
This nursing home also received a virtually flawless inspection. As a result, it received one of our highest scores in that category with an A+. This is one of the few nursing homes to receive multiple A+'s. Our inspection ratings account for several factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better grades in this category typically have few of these severe deficiencies. This facility received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This indicates that the inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies an imminent threat to resident safety or health. A few minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
To complement its strong performance in other areas, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. Our nursing score includes several subcategories, many of which are based on quantities of nurse staffing. This place boasts a really impressive 5 hours of nursing care per resident each day, of which a significant portion was provided by registered nurses. This is one of the more highly trained levels of nurses. On top of offering impressive levels of nursing care, this facility also excelled in the quality measures we looked at. For example, it performed as well as any nursing home in the state when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We view these datapoints as good indicators of the caliber of nursing care provided.
Long-term Care Quality
The final category we scored is this nursing home's weakest category. However, even in its weakest link we still gave it a decent grade of C for our long-term care category. Our long-term care grade is typically used to gauge a facility's performance as a traditional nursing home, as opposed to focusing more on the skilled nursing services offered by a rehabilitation facility. Once we looked at the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination data. It doesn't appear that this nursing home provided vaccination data. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
